CHP SALES GROWS 4% DURING THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2019

 

   

Sales increased by 4% year-over-year during the first half of the year, amounting to PHP 12.4 billion.

MANILA, PHILIPPINES. JULY 26, 2019 – CEMEX HOLDINGS PHILIPPINES, INC. (“CHP”) (PSE: CHP), announced today that sales increased by 4% during the first six months of 2019, to PHP 12.4 billion, versus the comparable period in 2018. Sales increased by 2% year-over-year in the second quarter, reaching PHP 6.1 billion.

Domestic cement volumes for the second quarter was 2% lower year-over-year, and 3% lower than the previous quarter. The result reflects a slowdown in construction related to the delayed approval of the national budget and restrictions on building activity surrounding the mid-term elections. Volumes were also affected by Holy Week and election holidays. Adjusting for this impact, average daily sales volumes increased by 3% year-over-year during the quarter.

The company remains positive on industry outlook, as it expects cement demand to increase by 8-12% for the rest of 2019. CHP expects its domestic cement volumes to grow in line with demand for the same period.

Cost of sales during the first six months of 2019 increased by 6% year-over-year, slightly above the growth in sales during the first half. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales was at 59%.

Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, were lower by 4 percentage points year-over-year during the first half, with the reduction coming from the distribution side. For full year 2019, the company is targeting to lower distribution expenses, as a percentage of sales, by 1 to 2 percentage points.

CHP posted an operating EBITDA of PHP 2.37 billion during the first six months of the year.

Ignacio Mijares, CHP President and CEO, said: “During the first six months of 2019, we faced challenging operational and market circumstances. Nevertheless, we concentrated our efforts on the variables within our control, and we are proud of the progress we have achieved during the first half of 2019. We believe that this moderation in construction activity is temporary as solid macroeconomic fundamentals and the government’s drive to build infrastructure will support growth in the second half of the year.”

Regarding the company’s plans to raise equity capital, CHP’s management continues to believe that an increase in the authorized capital stock, followed by a potential equity raising transaction, is the best option for CHP to improve its capital structure, provide balance sheet flexibility, and fund the ongoing Solid Cement Plant expansion.

“As private and public construction activity is expected to pick up, I look forward to the second half of the year as we continue to focus on delivering on our commitments and providing value for all our stakeholders,” Mr. Mijares added.

CHP, a listed company at the Philippine Stock Exchange, is one of the leading cement producers in the Philippines, based on annual installed capacity. CHP produces and markets cement and cement products, such as ready-mix concrete and clinker, in the Philippines through direct sales using its extensive marine and land distribution network. Moreover, CHP’s cement manufacturing subsidiaries have been operating in the Philippines with well-established brands, such as “APO,” “Island,” and “Rizal,” all having a multi-decade history in the country.

CHP is an indirect subsidiary of CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V., one of the largest cement companies in the world based on annual installed cement production capacity. The shares of CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. are listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.

See Debt Information on page 4 and Exchange Rates on page 7 for more detail. 2 In Philippine Pesos Net sales increased by 2% year-over-year during the quarter due to higher prices, a result of price adjustments implemented during 2018. Cost of sales was at 55% of sales during the quarter versus 58% in the same period of 2018. The decline was due to timing differences in the charging of APO Cement Plant’s scheduled kiln maintenance expenses. Operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, during the quarter decreased by 2 pp compared to the same period in 2018. Distribution expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 3 pp year-over-year during the quarter, mainly due to supply-chain-optimization initiatives, and higher sales from cement imports carried over resulting from the Naga landslide incident. Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased by 1 pp year-over-year during the quarter, but stayed flat during the first six months of the year. Operating EBITDA during the quarter increased by 29% year-over-year. Operating EBITDA margin during the quarter was at 21%. Controlling interest net income for the quarter was at PHP 634 million, benefitting mainly from foreign-exchange gains, and lower income tax expenses. Total debt at the end of June 2019 stood at PHP 19,050 million, of which PHP 13,196 million pertained to long-term debt owed to BDO Unibank, Inc. 2019 Second Quarter Results Page 2

Sales were also affected by Holy Week and election holidays. Adjusting for holidays, average daily sales volumes increased by 3% year-over-year during the quarter. Demand was mainly supported by growth in the non-residential sector driven by continued activity from business-process-outsourcing firms and offshore-gaming operations. Our domestic cement prices were 5% higher year-over-year during the quarter, a result of price adjustments implemented in 2018. Sequentially, domestic cement prices were 1% higher, reflecting changes in regional and product mix. 2019 Second Quarter Results Page 3
